Description

Hello, everyone out there. We’re looking for energetic volunteers to help out at my beautiful new retreat center in a neighborhood of Haßfurt in Lower Franconia. If you’d like to contribute to an inspiring and spiritual place, put your skills to use, and enjoy a relaxing break in nature at the same time, you’ve come to the right place! Here’s where we need your help: My parents’ old farmhouse is set to be converted into a retreat center. One room is already finished. Well, actually, there are two. For the remaining renovation work, you should ideally have experience or strong skills in at least one of these areas: Painting: Painting walls using eco-friendly and traditional casein paint. Plastering: Touch-ups and plastering entire walls; Upcycling & Restoration: Restoring old wooden furniture to its former glory (sanding, oiling, glazing). Sewing: Sewing curtains and drapes for our seminar rooms from my grandparents’ old bedsheets. I have a small self-sufficient garden where I also need some help. The Surroundings: Our small village is nestled in the countryside. In your free time, you can enjoy wonderful activities here [e.g., hiking, biking, enjoying the peace and quiet]. Who’s a good fit for us: People who can work independently, have an eye for detail, and work carefully (especially when it comes to eco-friendly construction with casein paint and clay plaster, and when restoring furniture). You should be reliable and eager to engage in respectful, warm interactions as equals. What to expect: You’ll have exclusive use of a fully equipped kitchen and a room with two beds. A toilet and sink are available; the shower is currently only accessible in the adjacent building (our home). (The bathroom in the seminar house is currently being renovated.) We can discuss breakfast and meals over the phone. Please briefly tell us who you are, what experience you have (feel free to mention your favorite tasks as well), and when you’d be available. Warm regards, Renate
